Nothing is better than 100% rag paper and India ink on a
handwritten label.  This has been used for centuries and is not
affected by solvents.  Yes, keeping the India ink drawing pens
clean is a hassle, but less than the problems of the label ink
dissolving and the collection becoming scientifically useless.  If
you deplore your handwriting, print the label and write over it
manually with India ink.
